Frequently Asked Questions

What does this ECC resources page list?

A hand-checked map of elliptic curve cryptography on the web: a Java implementation, tutorials and FAQs, research groups, a book on implementing ECC, and software such as the MIRACL big-number library.

What is elliptic curve cryptography?

A form of public-key cryptography based on the mathematics of elliptic curves, used for key exchange and digital signatures.

Is ECC safe against quantum computers?

No. A large enough quantum computer running Shor's algorithm could break elliptic curve cryptography, which is why standardised post-quantum algorithms are being adopted. See the PQC page on this site.

Are the links checked?

Yes. Links were hand-checked and dead links removed. Some sites block automated checks and may need a manual click.
